Answer to Question 1

C
Sucking on ice chips is a way to decrease thirst without adding a large amount of fluid. Rinsing the mouth with cool water and frequent tooth brushing are helpful also. Carbonated drinks contain sodium and will enhance fluid retention.

Answer to Question 2

D
Anxiety can be defined as a vague feeling of apprehension resulting from a perceived threat to self.
